Each year, Christians around the world join to pray for a world without leprosy. This year we invite you to pray with us on Wednesday May 7th. 

These international prayer services are a wonderful opportunity to meet and pray with supporters from various parts of the Global Fellowship. Meeting time and Zoom link will be available here soon.


The Leprosy Mission seeks to bring about transformation; breaking the chains of leprosy, empowering people to attain healing, dignity, and life in all its fullness.

We are targeting a Triple Zero Leprosy strategy — Zero Leprosy Transmission, Zero Leprosy Disability, and Zero Leprosy Discrimination. We are working hard with our international project partners, and international government organisations, to make leprosy transmission a thing of the past by 2035.
